Our Goal

We want to take you to places you’ve never been, and offer you experiences you’ve never witnessed. In the next couple of seasons we're going to be taking on our biggest challenge yet and we'd like you to be part of it. That's why we're setting up FTB Mates.

We love filming and blogging about this cruising life. And we are thrilled that you have come along to share it with us. We hope you have enjoyed what you’ve seen, and will continue to follow us on our adventure. Our content will always be free, but some of you have wanted to send us a few quid to say thanks. Currently we have a Patreon page and we have the Rum Fund for those who don’t wish to commit to ongoing contributions, but now we’re setting up FTB Mates. This is an exclusive club for all our supporters and we will be launching it in 2018. In the meantime…

Become our patron

We would love you to join our Patreon community where we post photos and links that no-one else sees. A pledge of $2 (about £1.30 for our UK followers) each time we release a video is all it takes.We release four episodes a month, plus free extras, and you have the option to set your own limit. We thank patrons with rewards, so if you would like to see your name in the roll call at the end of our videos, fancy an Esper T shirt or a genuine Jamie Furlong original photographic print, check out our page.

Esper's Rum Fund

Don’t like the idea of commitment? Don’t worry, you can throw a few doubloons in our Rum Fund as a one-off show of support. If you have a Paypal account you can send your donation directly via your Paypal account to liz@followtheboat.com Did you know that it takes the equivalent of at least one bottle of rum and two cans of cat food to produce each episode? That’s a lot of rum. And cat food. As a thank you, we’ll send you the recipe for the famous Esper cocktail, but not Millie-the-cat’s favourite food–which is, basically, raw fish.

Or, instead of buying…
